Hi
I would like some advice on "echo channel drainage system" please.
I am in process of buying a 3 bed semi, and the seller has recently done a block paving on front garden. It is about 30 square meters. Now, the local council has approved the seller's application to construct a vehicle crossing, but on some conditions. One of conditions is
"The new block paving has no surface drainage system abutting the highway. An echo channel drainage system requires installing as there is a steady fall from the building to the highway. This work must be carried out before the vehicle crossing is constructed."
My questions are
1. What kind of "echo channel drainage system" the council requires?
2. If there is not a soakaway, Where should the channel drainage terminate to? is channel drainage connect to an existing surface water drain acceptable to Council?
Thank you in advance!
